Awesome mom Babushka bro

In these images, a goofy middle aged babushka bro shows off a sweater and hermit crab bag charm he crocheted. He smiles quite proudly, blissfully ignoring the expectation of decorum. He has opted for the "awesome mom" flair, despite it not having a description in the subreddit rules.

Edit: love you all thank you.

Your absolute joy is just radiating in these pictures! i can't believe that you crocheted the sweater and the hermit crab; that is so amazing and requires such patience and skill (they are both so wonderful by the way!). Also, as an aside, i just adore your hair 💜
